I ran multiple test with Plex media server and Apple TV. Smooth play of Dune in 4k (compressed to 1080p) estimated at 38Mbps. Not sure how that is possible though? When the stats are less than 20 Mbps. Definetely happy about this setup and not spending more money on a prober NAS system. This was...
Sorry, let me clarify. I have not connected the hard drive to the router for transferring. The drive is connected to my PC and I'm merely transferring between the two partitions.
It will be done later today and I will make a test and post the specs!
I will test it as soon as it is done transferring everything from the old partition. For some reason that takes ages despite it being an SSD. Estimated 17 hours for 800GB :p
I think I was just messing around with different IP's to see how I could connect to it. I have enabled SMB and given the rights but it wasn't enough. I tried disabling FTP to see if it intervened in any ways, and suddenly the drive was visible as a network drive. I can now use all features R/W...
